A random list of updates

6.01.2012

Hey folks. Sorry I've been neglecting this thing lately, but we're moved! Done and done. Everything's moved and the old place is clean clean clean, and we love the new place. It's basically the same, but the ceiling is about a foot higher and we get TONS more light up here. That's been so nice. Chad's new favorite thing about living here is that he can open the blinds in the morning and fill the apartment with fresh morning light. Not so with the old place. You just got a nice view of the asphalt. We've been trying to walk softly so as not to disturb the neighbors under us, but the building is way old and not all creakage is avoidable. But we try.

Emmett is 9 months old! But I don't have any stats for you yet. I forgot to make his 9 month appointment, so we're having that on the 7th. Whoops.

Chad's getting better and better at his job, and he meets some interesting people. I love it when he comes home with stories. He came home with a bull catalog the other day after doing an install at an artificial insemination salesman's house. That was kinda cool :) Sounded like a nice guy too. It's amazing the range of places he goes. He'll do installs on super crummy trailers and three-story mansions alike.

Wanna see pictures of my little brother whipping? Of course you do. See, look:



I dunno much about it, but being skilled with a whip is a big part of traditional Hungarian culture. Alex's is a Hungarian bullwhip (I think... maybe?). Anyway, I know he mentions that they go whipping sometimes :) Basically I have the coolest little brother in the world. And he can speak this language. Told you. Cool. (That links to a kind of goofy news report, but you get a good sense of the language anyway. Just make it illegal to jump from the stupid bridge and save yourselves a lot of time and money! Sheesh!). Anyway :)

Well, E-dog is waking up so I've gotta run. Have a fantastic day, and I'll be back soon with new pictures.

  2. I know! Hungarian sounds like it'd be a beast to learn. I hear it's the third most difficult language taught at the MTC :) But yes, Alex is extremely talented when it comes to languages. Kinda like Chad :)
